April 26-May 2
We praise God for His goodness to us! He brought us back into the village when many thought it would be impossible due to regulations of the country. God granted us permission to fly. We also were greeted by a truck at the airstrip and were brought to the river. We then prayed for a boat and a motor to be available and the Lord answered prayer. We were well on our way to Moka in less then and hour and a half.
Upon our arrival to the village we were glad to see that the grass was cut! The airstrip work was not really done but we figured that, being it was rainy season and one of the main landowners passed away from a long time sickness. They take the mourning process differently then an American. It goes on for a very long time in the village.
Two families continued to meet on Sundays while we were gone. They read the Bible and sang. We were so encouraged by this. We are praying for each of them. David and Dorika are a young family who have been coming and Kobe is one of the oldest men in the village and I truly believe the Lord is working in him. He is not doing well so please pray for him.
Bella’s rooster, “Saragi” was babysat by a family here in Moka and they took great care of him. The chicken is like no other. He comes when we call and allows Bella to literally do anything to him. He is a fighter when it comes to Jersey and steals her food. It’s the little things that makes the kids happy.
We got the house in order in about three days and I was able to decorate a little. We now have a bathroom mirror!
We really are looking forward to seeing what the Lord has in store for us this time in the village.
”Sing praises to the Lord, who sits enthroned in Zion! Tell among the peoples his deeds!”
Psalm 9:11
